Fresh, novel (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

new

I believe this is a double definition.

'fresh' is the first definition.
(I know that fresh can be written as new)

'novel' is the second definition.
(novel means new or fresh)

(Other definitions for new that I've seen before include "Recently made, etc" , "Original" , "and 28 and 29: The 365th day" , "Novel, recent" , "Fresh, recent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
